Description
A healthier take on the classic green bean casserole with buttery sautéed mushrooms, garlic, and crisp green beans.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/2 cup onion (finely diced)
- 8-ounce package button mushrooms (sliced)
- 3 cups fresh green beans (ends removed and cut in half)
- 3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 (10.75-ounce) can low-sodium cream of mushroom soup
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Crispy onion strings (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Sauté the diced onions and mushrooms until they are just tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the green beans and chicken broth, bringing it to a boil. Cook for about 8 minutes until the beans are crisp-tender, then drain.
- Prepare a 2-quart baking dish by spraying it with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup, sautéed mushroom mixture, green beans, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the baking dish and top with crispy onion strings.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until fully heated through.
Notes
To enhance flavor, toast the crispy onion strings briefly in the skillet used for the mushrooms before adding them on top.
